This video is part of the “KNOW YOUR MARITIME INDUSTRY” WEBINAR SERIES - AUGUST 2021 - The webinar has an accompanying theme: “ALL HANDS ON DECK! MARINONG PINOY: BE INFORMED! BE FUTURE READY!” and it aims to educate our Filipino Seafarers about the Private and Government Agencies in the Philippines that play a big role in the maritime industry and agencies that are responsible for the welfare of Filipino Seafarers.

Invited guest speakers include Heads of Government Agencies who are dealing with the Maritime Industry. Various topics would be discussed and would include what our Government has been doing to further improve our maritime industry as well as ensure their competitiveness and secure their employment amidst the stiff competition in the world seafaring market.

The webinar is organized by the IMO-ASTIG, an association of young seafarers which assists the IMO Goodwill Maritime Ambassador of the Philippines, Ms. Josephine J. Francisco, in organizing various projects that help promote the maritime profession. Officially established in February 2020, IMO-ASTIG stands for International Maritime Organization - Alliance of Seafarers Towards Achieving IMO’s Global Maritime Mission.
